Dratini (Japanese: ミニリュウ Miniryu) is a Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
It evolves into Dragonair starting at level 30, which evolves into Dragonite starting at level 55.
Biology
A Dratini shedding its skin
Dratini is a serpentine Pokémon with a blue body and a white underside. It has white, three-pronged fins on the sides of its head and a white bump on its forehead, which is its horn growing. Above its round, white snout are oval, purple eyes.
Dratini's life energy is constantly building so it is always growing, and can reach lengths of over six feet. As it grows, it sheds its skin regularly and hides behind a rapid waterfall during the process. The shed skin of Draitni can be used to compose super luxury boots. Dratini lives a quiet life underwater, eating any food that sinks down to the bottom. Although this Pokémon was originally thought to be nothing more than a myth, a small colony has been found living underwater. It was first discovered by a fisherman who spent 10 hours attempting to capture it. It has been referred as the "Mirage Pokémon". In the past, Outrage was its signature move.

- Main article: Clair's Dratini
- Main article: Lance's Dratini
Dratini debuted in Drat That Dratini! in Viridian Forest. It had been attacking Yellow but was calmed by Red. It later appeared again in a flashback of Yellow's in Bang the Drum, Slowbro.
Lance's Dragonite was once a Dratini, as shown in a flashback in The Legend. It was also revealed to be a Pokémon harmed by human industrialization. This motivated Lance to formulate his plot to destroy humanity many years later.
Clair's Dragonair was once a Dratini, as shown in a flashback in The Last Battle II.
In The Last Battle XIII, a Dratini was sent to participate in the fight in Ilex Forest.
In The Final Battle IV, a Dratini helped Emerald with his disabilities.

A Dratini appeared in The Black Scroll: Nobunaga's Ambition, under the ownership of Ranmaru.
Pokémon Pocket Monsters
A Dratini appeared in Lance's Dragonite's fantasy in The Final Battle!! when it was telling a false story about how it met Lance.
A Dratini appeared in Good-Bye, Pikachu?!, where it took a liking to Pikachu. When Giovanni showed up with Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, Pikachu decided to protect it. Dratini then evolved into a Dragonair when it noticed that Pikachu got injured by Giovanni's Jolteon and Electabuzz. It evolved again into Dragonite when Clefairy pulled its tail.
Pokémon Zensho
In PZ06, Satoshi found a Dratini while fishing in the Safari Zone. Soon afterwards, he traded it to a Fisherman in exchange for several Water-type Pokémon and the Safari Zone Warden's missing dentures.

Trivia
- In early English-language promotional material for Pokémon Red and Blue, Dratini was referred to as "Dragoon". Although this word can mean a European military unit that is transported on horseback but fights on foot, the name was probably selected as a combination of dragon and lagoon.
- Dratini and its evolved forms share their category name with Horsea, its evolved forms, Salamence, and Goodra. They are all known as Dragon Pokémon.
Origin
Dratini appears to be based on sea serpents or ryu, traditional Japanese dragons or Chinese dragons who bring good luck. Its constant growth is also similar to that of Jörmungandr, a serpent in Norse mythology. Additionally, its reclusive nature, aquatic habitat, and the fact that, for a long time, it was considered a myth are reminiscent of the Loch Ness Monster.
Name origin
Dratini is a combination of dragon and a corruption of tiny; tini-tiny is a phrase to indicate smallness. -ini is also an Italian suffix, applied to a word to imply endearment or smallness. Despite this, it is fairly large for a Pokémon, being 5'11" (1.8 m) in length. The name therefore may be in comparison to the size of Dragonair, whose length is 13'01" (4.0 m).
Miniryu is a combination of miniature and 竜 ryū (dragon).
